The Vine

The Vine - El Dorado Hills, California - January 25, 2025.We showed up at about 5 PM on a Saturday evening. We came in to see a live performance from Dylan Zoom, a very talented solo acoustic guitar/singer. Our server's name was Maya. She was a doll.We ordered the fried cheese balls, chicken sliders, and shrimp bacon tacos. I also ordered a couple of the fan fave IPA beers. Everything was tasty. Dillon did a fantastic job entertaining us all. He had an amazing voice and was a very talented guitar player.The ambience is nice. They have a nice bar, lots of dining tables, and a lounge area with a nice long couch and a couple chairs with a table in the middle.I'll definitely come back.

Cute little wine bar in old Folsom! Went as a group of 3 on a Thursday evening around 6:45 pm and we were promptly seated. We decided to get a wine flight: I got the Rosé flight, and my friends got the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir flight. For tapas, we decided to split the Tuscany Hummus Bruschetta, Hot Honey Cheese Balls, and the Caramelized Onion, Goat Cheese Flatbread. There were a decent amount of vegetarian options to choose from.Wines were delicious and very smooth. The presentation of the food was great and it tasted flavorful and fresh. Since it is tapas style, the portion size is small. The bill with tip came out to be $120 which we felt was a bit steep for the three of us considering the small portion sizes and the fact that we left the restaurant still feeling a little hungry. This would be a great date spot and I would consider coming back for happy hour.

Stopped in to The Vine with a group of friends on a Friday night for a night cap an drink from each of us.A pair of my friends who are from Folsom, frequent The Vine and intintroduce us to the bartender after we all sit at the bar.We all look over the drink lists, and I immediately noticed and commented on the vast amount of wines that wereavailable. If I had to guess because I didn't actually count, I'd have to say there were at least 30+ wines available to select from. White the greater majority being red wines and the reremaining being whites.Of the six of us, three of my friends each order a glass of red wine. My girlfriend tried a sample of the same red, but settled on a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. My other friend and I ordered a Pilsner beer.Overall: Friendly bartender, good service and drinks seemed to be enjoyed.

Came for the music stayed for the drinks and food. My sister in law was raving about the charcuterie board so we decided to drop by before heading to a concert up the street. We were surprised to hear some live music but the band was great! We paired the board with some of their flavored wine and really enJoyed our night. My only complaint was that the service was a lil slow and we had to wipe off our own table.

This review concerns Karaoke night at The Vine Folsom every OTHER Sunday from 6pm-8pm. I noticed from the outside that the venue is a long, skinny rectangular-shaped place. It took me a second to realize that KJ Curtis Morgan and his booth are located within 6' of the only entrance. The venue does not have a built-in TV so he has a 27" TV mounted high (6' or more) on a stand so that when people enter and walk by they don't block the screen. There is a single speaker box mounted up high in the N/E corner of the room (nearly above him). He uses Karafun software with a $50 monthly subscription so he has all the latest songs available. He does a manual queue system and keeps names in the rotation. He seems to have a decent Mixer board and microphones but I think he purposely sets the music (& mic) volumes low (unlike most KJs who always max out the volumes). I felt like I had to sing at a higher volume to hear myself. I think we had less than 10 total singers (maybe it peaked at 8?). It started off with just 4 including the KJ. The most notable thing about karaoke here is the crowd. Even though most people are not singing, the audience really gets into it. Most of the singers seem to have memorized their songs and face the people when singing. The people are really appreciative of good singing and songs they recognize. Even though the show is short in duration, the crowd can thin out before it even closes at 8pm. I managed to get 5 songs in 2 hours. I would definitely want to come back if I am not working too late and can make it here on time. I deducted 1 star for the small TV screen and low music (and mic) volume.

I was here early on a Wednesday while waiting for horseback riding lessons to be done. I enjoyed happy hour prices for my sparkling and flatbread, both tasty. After 15 minutes of waiting, I eventually had to flag down the server for another pour, when for ten of those minutes I was 1 of 2 people present. She was very friendly, however, and promptly poured me another despite getting a bit slammed with several parties arriving within minutes of each other. Colder than I would have liked inside, but this may be because I chose to sit at a window seat. Music was at a talk-able volume, which I always appreciate. I would come again.

I enjoyed the two glasses of Frank Family Chardonnay. The wine pourer let me taste it along with another Chardonnay before I ordered a glass. Cute place. Nice service. Great wine selection. Friendly patrons. I will return and order some small bites next time to accompany my wine.

Went here for happy hour on Thursday around 4pm. There wasn't much of a crowd, only one server and she was friendly. She did take our orders a while after we were seated but honestly I didn't mind it. My friend ordered the margarita flatbread and I got the Asian plum meatballs. The meatballs were good, nothing special. The slaw wasn't the best, the veggies seemed a little old. Overall, it was a cute little place to grab some small bites :)

Stopped by for some live music and tapas. Cute, casual locals wine bar. Very popular with girl's night out scene with large tables and in and outdoor seating. Unclear if self-seat or bar and collected menus and sat at an open table. Tried the meal package of 3 tapas and 2 wines. The tapas were great for 2, decent portions and clear effort to step up the plates and presentation over the local competition. The ahi chips were 4 to a plate and great, and the tri-tip dip was great. The au jus was simple and clean and well matched to the cheese and sourdough. Basic chips as an add-on. The wines under the meal discount were fine, but not standouts. But the rest of the selection was excellent. You can find everything from decent Italian to locals. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Really cool spot in historic Folsom. Delicious & huge variety of wines. We got old zin & a cab. Service was very attentive & kind. We shared a charcuterie board & got to choose what meat/cheeses we wanted. Such a fun spot to hang out with a friend & catch up!
